Critic Reviews

  • A.O. Scott, New York Times

    All in all, Committed lacks the courage of its convictions.

  • Michael Atkinson, Mr. Showbiz

    Ambiguous enough to let you contemplate the thin line between love and obsession.

  • Robert Horton, Film.com

    Until it backs itself into a narrative corner, Lisa Krueger's Committed. is a delightfully unpredictable experience.

    With its capacity to surprise, the film comes to life when you don't expect it to.

  • James Berardinelli, ReelViews

    Overall, Committed is a disappointment.
